Metabolism - Fatty Acid Synthesis: Part 1

Metabolism - Fatty Acid Synthesis: Part 1

Explore the intricate process of fatty acid synthesis in this comprehensive video lecture. Delve into the conversion of Acetyl-CoA to Malonyl-CoA, examining the allosteric and hormonal regulation of enzymes involved in this pathway. Gain insights into the regulatory effects on carnitine palmitoyltransferase (types I and II) in fatty acid oxidation. Learn about the roles of glucose, citrate, and NADPH in metabolism as Professor Zach Murphy guides you through this complex biochemical process.
